Drain the pears and save the juice and pears. Reserve 2 tablespoons juice for the salad dressing. Pour the remaining juice from 1 can of pears over each dish and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
• Make the dressing by whisking together the reserved 2 tablespoons pear juice, lime juice, olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• When you are ready to fry the chicken, heat an inch of canola oil over medium-high heat in a heavy skillet to 350 degrees F. Put the flour into a shallow dish and season it well with cayenne, salt and pepper. Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Pat the chicken dry and coat with the flour mixture. Let them rest on a plate while the oil gets hot. Fry the chicken in batches. Drain them on paper towels and keep warm.

Add the pears and cook until they are hot. Pour the mixture into a blender, add the cranberry jelly and butter, and puree carefully as it is hot. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. The mixture should be thick but pourable. If it is too thin, put it back into the pan and reduce it a bit.

• Make and freeze the stuffing: Mash together the goat cheese, shredded cheese, cranberries, Italian seasoning and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl with a fork. (You can use your hands to mix it really well.) Taste a 'lil bit and add a pinch of salt if needed. Divide the cheese mixture into four sections and shape into torpedo-like logs a bit shorter than the length of the chicken breasts. Wrap each in plastic wrap. Freeze until firm, at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
• Prepare the chicken: Use a paring knife to cut a pocket into the short, fat end of a chicken breast, that will run through much of the length of the breast, without cutting all the way through. It may take a few strokes with the knife. Repeat with the remaining chicken breasts. Remove the stuffing from the freezer and insert one log in each pocket. If necessary, trim the logs to fit into the pockets. Secure the openings with toothpicks.
• Season and grill the chicken: Preheat the grill for direct and indirect grilling at 350 degrees F and oil the grates.
• Brush olive oil on the chicken and sprinkle on all sides with salt and pepper. Place the chicken over the direct heat of the grill and cook until a peek beneath reveals grill marks, 5 to 7 minutes.
